    I did a similar thing for both fights lol. I picked Baraou on here and bet on Culcay Dec at 5.5x. Picked Postol on here and put a fraction of my winnings on Ramirez KO 7-12 at same 5.5 odds.

    Good luck to you my friend and all you other fine fellows of the PICKEM league

      If you've picked Ramirez decision in this then I should probably change my pick!

        Perfect pick on Ramirez... and money lost everywhere else, as per my weekly tradition.
        Too bad I wasted a x2 on Baraou rather than Ramirez...

            Also Greg confidently assures us that Erislandy's basically done so that's money in the bag right there...
            Heh, it would be great if life could REALLY be lived like this...

            Vendetti - obviously - thoroughly outboxed, and Postol lost as expected. As someone famous once wrote...

            "Money, get away
            Get a good job with good pay and you're okay"

            ...and I don't even have the latter!

                I hear ya brother. I discovered over the years I ain't really very good at working for other people though... least not for long, and I'm a bit too relaxed to ever earn much working for myself. I figure so long as I can keep the wolves from the door I'm OK though.... never had much so I never learned to miss it.

                I was once called 'rich in life' by Jrs headteacher which kinda amused me cos what I suspect he actually meant - best I can tell - is that my broke ass is usually smiling or laughing.

                Best things in life really are free, man, wise words I think in a world ever more desperate to put a price tag on everything.

                  Very true words brother Koba. Money is the root of all things for a reason

                    Last few rounds it just turned into a toe2toe, pretty much takling turns to unload on each other center ring... Abass held his own but it played to Culcay's grit and toughness more than to Abass' skill. Lack of experience thing like I say.

                    I think the kid's gonna make a decent mid-level contender... should probably snag at least a minor title at some point.



                    Maybe my expectations were set a little to high lol
                    Don’t like Culcay , that might of been a factor also
